.. It looks like it is only sync'ing after you open and close the Reminders app on your Mac; or if you assign a reminder date to the reminder in each List. However, it's not consistent across all platforms...

Thanks again Russa. Here is what finally worked for me. I make certain that the Mac is on Reminders and not Mobile Me. Then I go to Settings on the iphone, go to Reminders and then Sync.Under Sync, All Reminders should be checked. Then, if I am entering a reminder on my iphone, I go to Show More at the bottom of the Details page. I then go to list and check icloud Reminders. Now everything entered will also appear on my Mac.

I do every bit of typing I can on a real keyboard instead of my phone or pad, and was hoping to be able to set up reminders on my Mac, but I'm not finding out how. I have been using iCal, but figure Reminders is more appropriate.

Hi Howard, Are you just trying to enter a reminder on your Mac and have it instantaneously appear on your iphone? If so,my 2/12/13 rreply to Russa, above, which sets out how I do this should work for you. Before replying to you today I went through each of the steps and it works fine. Russa is right in that it may seem a bit confusing but be patient. Good luck.

I have opened Reminders on my Mac. On the left side I have On my Mac, beneath that i have Mobileme mail to do, next I have icloud and then Reminders. I selected Reminders and then following the directions I gave on 2/12/13 [ above ], I am able to sync the Mac with the iphone.
